Airspace restrictions are due to be put in place over Windsor for the state visit of US President, Donald Trump.
Thames Valley Police says a 'significant security operation' is planned as President Trump makes his second state visit to the UK on September 17.
The president will be hosted by King Charles for the visit which comes just weeks after France's President Emmanuel Macron arrived in the Berkshire town accompanied by his wife.
Airspace restrictions for aircraft and drones will be in place over and around the town between September 17 and 18.

Chief Inspector Matthew Wilkinson, of our Joint Operations Unit, said: “We have a significant security operation in place in and around Windsor for the visit of President Trump.
“As is typical for events of this scale, we are implementing a significant airspace restriction to keep the local community and attendees at the event safe.
“We will be using police drones and support from the National Police Air Service in the area to enforce the restricted airspace.
“We will have resources available and tactics deployed to enforce these restrictions and deal with anybody who fails to adhere to them.
“If you notice anything suspicious in the air or on the ground, please report this to police.
"You can speak to an officer, make a report online, via our website or call 101. If something is taking place now, always call 999.”

The force said it is working closely with partners to ensure the event passes safely and with 'minimal disruption' to the local community.
The announcement comes after thousands signed a petition earlier this year to stop the US President setting foot on British soil.
Demonstrators previously announced plans to march through the streets of London and Windsor in protest with Seema Syeda, spokesperson for The Stop Trump Coalition claiming that President Trump is 'not welcome here'.
The 79-year-old Republican is expected to be accompanied by his wife, First Lady Melania Trump, as he also visits Buckingham Palace.
It will be President Trump's second state visit to the UK, an unprecedented gesture for an American leader, after his first trip to England in 2019.
News of the visit first broke in February this year when Prime Minister, Sir Keir Starmer, presented the President with a letter from the King during a meeting at the White House in Washington DC.
As the pair were sat next to each other in the Oval Office, Sir Keir handed the president the personal invitation, later saying “this is truly historic and unprecedented”.
